In a large bowl, cream together butter, sugar, and egg.

In a small bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, and salt.

Add dry ingredients into wet ingredients and mix – cookie dough will start to form.

As the dough starts to take shape, add gel food coloring. Knead with your hands until dough is formed and completely tinted by the food coloring. Wrap in plastic and chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour.

Remove dough from the fridge and roll with a rolling pin until it’s about ¼ of an inch thick. Cut dough into squares, about 2 inches x 2 inches in size. Place on a lined baking sheet and bake in a preheated oven (375 degrees F) for about 7-8 minutes.

Allow cooling before decorating.

Next, roll out black fondant so that it’s about ¼ of an inch thick. Use tip of Wilton #12 to cut out 30-48 black fondant circles, depending on how many cookies have been baked.

Place one black fondant circle on each white fondant circle. Dot black decorating frosting on the back of each fondant “eye” piece. Place two on each cookie.

Attach Wilton tip #3 on black decorating frosting and draw a smile on each cookie. Knead remaining black and white fondant together to blend a piece of fondant that’s grey in color.

Roll out spheres, about ¼ of an inch in size. Flatten slightly. Dot black decorating frosting on each flattened grey fondant sphere and attach one on each side of the cookie – these will act as Frankenstein’s monster’s bolts.

Attach Wilton tip #233 on black decorating frosting and frost hair on each cookie.

Enjoy!
